C45 (1/2)
The reason why I was so shocked was because the person I saw was none other than Li Huaguang, the son of Wu Rilan, who drowned in the well the year before last. Logically speaking, he was drowned the year before yesterday, and his father was drowned last year. He had already found a substitute, and Yin Longevity had already passed to his father.
Hearing this, Li Huaguang shrugged his shoulders and started crying again. As he said this, he sobbed until he couldn't even make a sound. Of course he only said what he saw and heard, but with this part of his story the whole thing became clear.
The year before last, when he was swimming here, he was a little late. He didn't expect to be dragged down by a water ghost, suffering from the erosion of the sandy lake water and having to endure the negative longevity of all the water ghosts before this. This caused him to be extremely desperate, constantly thinking about how to capture a substitute. Last year, when the weather was so dry that the fields needed watering, people pumped the ponds to water the fields. Since there were more people watering the fields and the weather was hot, Li Caizhong chose to water them at night in order to avoid the peak work during the day. It was because he worked at night that he gave Li Huaguang a chance. Because of the constant pumping of water for several days, the water level of the well pool had dropped a lot. In order to ensure that the water source was sufficient, it was necessary to take the water pipe from the pump head into the well pool. However, the deeper the well pool went, the steeper it became. Li Huaguang saw this rare opportunity and didn't even see who it was, immediately dragging Li Caizhong into the water. When Li Caizhong stopped struggling, he realised that he was actually killing his own father, so he blamed himself in his heart. He stayed underwater guarding his father's corpse crying for two days before letting him out of the water. Following that, Li Caizhong took over his son's task and began to hunt for the next one to enter the water. Out of guilt, Li Huaguang refused to enter the reincarnation cycle, instead waiting for him at the shore. Li Huaguang said that he would wait until his father passed on this lifespan to the next person, only then would he be willing to leave.
But at this time, I had a doubt. Li Pingliang destroyed the Dragon King's Temple and offended the Dragon King, so three generations after that, the Dragon King became a criminal. But from the looks of it, their death was not even close to the Dragon King's. If you have to explain, it is the cycle of retribution in a variety of forms, and in the process of retribution will often plant another root of disaster, resulting in more and more grudges, cycle after cycle.
After Li Huaguang said this, he stopped for a moment, as if he suddenly thought of something, ”You know me? Then you are — ”Li Huaguang said as he leaned forward, looking at me with a puzzled expression.” Erlang? It's you who slapped my hand? ”
At this point, the truth was revealed. No wonder when I stretched out my hand to slap him, there were many traces of water on his hand. Moreover, there was the smell of fish on the water grass.
I figured that it was about time and I couldn't stay here any longer. I needed to get to the point, so I quickly changed the topic and asked, ”Do you know why that person wanted to harm me?”
”I heard him say to himself that it was you who blocked his path to riches and was his nemesis, so I had to get rid of you.”
Am I his nemesis? Oh, it suddenly dawned on me that he had taken the wrong path and controlled the ghosts to satisfy his personal needs, causing this place to be in imbalance between the Yin and Yang. As a judge, I have to uphold the path of Yin and Yang and punish those who break the law, regardless of whether they are ghosts or humans, they are all within my jurisdiction.
”Li Huaguang, where is your father, Li Caizhong, right now? Why is he not here? ” I asked.
”My dad …” My father was ordered to work for that man under the well. ”
As soon as I heard what we were about to do, I asked, ”What do you want to do?”
”My dad was ordered to stay at the bottom of the well and defend a wisp of his soul. When someone calls out his soul, that person will use a demonic technique to confuse the person who is calling out their soul and send him into the water. Then he will have my dad drag him into the water.”
I couldn't help but take in a breath of cold air. It turned out that Li Caizhong had captured a wisp of the soul of the glass at Huang Xuanlong's behest, not to make it difficult for the glass, but for my life. He had predicted that I would wake the soul of the glass in the middle of the night. It seems that from the start, Huang Xuanlong was playing the next game. They were all chess pieces, and I was his opponent. When I thought about this, I couldn't help but to get scared. I thought to myself, ”When he was captured, why didn't he execute the execution immediately? It would be much easier said than done.” He was definitely going to be locked up and sent to the newspaper. In the end, it was time for him to escape. He really was looking for trouble.
I asked. ”Which one of you let him out of the station?” Because that video was obviously being disturbed by electromagnetic interference, and this frequency must not have been produced by a human being.
”I, it was me. I was also forced.” one of them replied.
”You guys …” I was about to scold them, but stopped midway. It was because they had been ordered by Huang Profound Dragon to do so many heinous things, and should indeed be scolded, but they were also restricted by others and had no choice but to obey. Otherwise, even ghosts would not be able to do so.
”Li Caizhong has appeared.” My main purpose was to trap Li Caizhong so that the soul of the glass could fly out of the water. I shouted a few times, but seeing that there was no movement, I shouted a few more times, but there was still no movement.
”There's no need to call him. He must be trapped under the water right now. Otherwise, if the decree will be issued, no one will dare to come. ” Li Huaguang said while crying.
It's over, looks like Huang Xuanyuan still controlled Li Caizhong first, so I can't recruit him. But if they couldn't get him, then the soul of the glass wouldn't come out, and things were in a dead end. What should they do?
”Li Huaguang, later inform your father to release the soul of the glass. I am the one who summoned the soul today.”
”Huh?” Li Hua Guang looked extremely shocked, ”Why is it that you want to recruit souls? Could it be that the person that is going to deal with you today?”
I nodded.
”This... This... You are a judgement, a Yin Master. I can't harm you, I can't harm you … ”Those who will suffer the wrath of the heavens, will suffer the wrath of the heavens …” Li Huaguang was flustered, and his words lost all logic.
I couldn't stay any longer, so I said, ”I have some business to attend to today. I'll help you guys deal with it another day …”
They didn't want to let go at all, they all came up crying and pulling at me, not letting me go. When I saw what was happening, I pushed them away with my hands, pushing them, and they slowly disappeared one by one.
”I think it's getting late. If he sleeps until dawn, wouldn't we have waited the entire night for nothing?” It was the voice of a first-year senior, and it sounded very impatient.
”How about this, I'll go and wake the glass. You stay here and look at the glass.” Dad said.
”Uncle, I'm afraid here. Let's go together.”
I rubbed the back of my head and sat up slowly. I saw them sitting side by side, facing the well, smoking, and tiptoed to the back of his head to blow on his neck.
”Uncle” said with a shudder, ”Why is there something blowing on my neck? Take a look.”
”Don't talk nonsense, the young people are scaring themselves.” Dad said without turning around.
”Really?” He almost cried at the thought of it. ”You're still touching my back. Hurry and help me see if there's something wrong.”
